My wife and I are available for house sitting. We take care of your beloved pets and home and the only times left available this year is from the 15th April to the 5th May and again from the 22nd Sept to 25th Oct.

We have many glowing 5 star references available, as we have been housesitting for many people around the Whangarei and outer regions. We are self employed and have an online business, which means we can transport ourselves easily.

Due to a recent unavoidable cancellation, we are currently available for a house sit anytime between the dates 15 April through till 5th May.

In 2017, free HPV immunisations were extended to boys for the first time, with about two thirds of parents choosing to immunise their children through their school immunisation programme.

HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop. The viruses are mostly transmitted in adolescence but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they’re young.

Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV in their lifetime. Immunisation can significantly reduce HPV-related harm. Protecting all children before they’re exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.

Free HPV immunisation at school or from your GP. For more info visit: www.health.govt.nz/hpv
